An estimated 9 million people across the United States identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender, according to a study released Thursday by the Williams Institute at UCLA’s School of Law.

Drawing on information from four recent national and two state-level population-based surveys, the analyses suggest that there are more than 8 million adults in the U.S. who are lesbian, gay, or bisexual, comprising 3.5% of the adult population.

There are also nearly 700,000 transgender individuals in the U.S.

In total, the study suggests that approximately 9 million Americans — roughly the population of New Jersey — identify as LGBT.
